Governor Jose Manuel de la Sota Bridge, Cable-stayed bridge in Córdoba, Argentina
The Governor Jose Manuel de la Sota Bridge is a cable-stayed structure spanning Lake San Roque with two parallel roadways and pedestrian paths integrated into its design. A central arch provides the structural support for the 325-meter crossing between the two lakeshores.
The bridge opened in April 2019, marking a recent addition to the region's transport network with advanced engineering techniques. Its inauguration represented an important step in improving regional connectivity and reducing travel times across the lake.
The structure is named after a former Córdoba governor and represents a milestone in the region's infrastructure development. Visitors crossing it experience a contemporary landmark that shaped connectivity between different communities.
The bridge connects the Costa Azul Highway with Provincial Route E-55, offering direct access between Villa Carlos Paz and surrounding areas. Pedestrian pathways are well-maintained, allowing visitors to walk across and enjoy views of the lake during daylight hours.
The construction used high-capacity tower cranes working simultaneously to build the central arch and access viaducts as a coordinated project. Anchors extend deep into the bedrock to secure the structure safely against the weight and stress of constant traffic.
